I didn't get a picture of this which may be the most impactful sign I saw at No Kings 10/18:
First they came for the immigrants
And I spoke up because
I know the rest of the damn poem.
It would be great to have a Canadian team win the World Series this year.

Breaking news: The Trump administration has asked the Internal Revenue Service’s top attorney to revoke Harvard University’s tax-exempt status amid President Trump’s row with the institutions that his administration views as "woke."
The Trump administration abruptly laid off the entire staff running a $4.1 billion program to help low-income households across the U.S. pay their heating and cooling bills.

Stop being friends with fascists.

Trump’s pardon of Jan 6 attackers corrupts the rule of law and rewrites history. These were not “hostages.” These were people who used brute force to commit vigilante violence.
Therefore, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby order: 1. The White House Counsel to provide the White House Security Office and Acting Chief Security Officer with a list of personnel that are hereby immediately_granted interim Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) security clearances for a period not to exceed six months; and 2. That these individuals shall be immediately. granted access to the facilities and technolog.y necessary to perform the duties of the office to which they have been hired; and 3. The White House Counsel, as my designee, may supplement this list as necessary; and 4. The White House Counsel, as my designee, shall have the authority to revoke the interim clearance of any individual as necessary.
Under this executive order, an undisclosed list of Trump officials will be granted 6mo Top Secret/SCI clearances immediately without undergoing background checks. In charge of the bypass: new White House Counsel David Warrington, who worked on the 2024 campaign. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
Yes! A favorite use case of this: open source system security plans (required for federal compliance) enabling orgs to benefit from shared learnings and best practices.
Imagine if government departments built on each others work and learned from each other? Shared their best practices with people around the world so that everyone could benefit from secure, accessible, usable applications. A better world is possible if we have the courage to reach for it.
